Description of the problem	I bought my nissan armada brand new in 2007. It is a 2006 model. The vehicle is very stylish but it is like a death trap. When the bumper to bumper warranty ran out @ 36,000 miles, my brakes have been an issue. Every year i have had to get brakes put on the armada and it has to be nissan brakes because i tried other brakes and they squeal and grind. Now i have an rather scary situation. I was driving 25mph and put my brakes on and my suv started nose diving in the front end and the brake light came on, not to mention, the brakes would not work properly. It was catching and releasing about 4 times, each time i would brake. I almost hit a car. I drove it to a mechanic right then, and they ran scan on the brake code since the light came on during this event. The code is c1179. Apparently this is a dealer issue. I called the nissan dealership i bought the armada from and they told me i needed a software update for the abs system. Really? This is not a recall issue? I have read several reviews and they are are having abs issues. Come on nissan, how many lives have to be lost or injured before you recall this abs problem? Why would they charge consumers $120 for a computer update to the system if it is clearly a manufacturer defect... The other issues are: drivers side seat is ripping, poor material, the drivers side floor mat is sliding under the driver pedal, the blind spot is a severe issue on the left drivers side, paint chips easily, bad gas mileage, radiator leaks, strut is bad on the passenger front side, which is causing it to leak on the pavement when parked. *kb
